Client .MSI installer - I hate manually installing clients!!!

Anyone manage to get a working .MSI installer for retrospect client? We have

about 100 laptops here and it's a nightmare to schedule the client install.

 

Retrospect needs a lot of hand-holding to get started.

 

1.) client needs unique password.

2.) client install can't easily be automated (we failed at it.)

3.) client not on the official list until added to the server

4.) server needs client pasword to add

5.) no way to save default client password so we're not prompted eternally

for the same password over and over again.

 

It would sure be nice if I could roll out an MSI and then retrospect would

attempt to back up new computers via proactive backup if the client password

matches a saved default password on the server.

 

Surely I'm not the only one who is annoyed by all this manual intervention stuff!
